Lodge Blacklock Cast Iron Double Burner, 25.5×50.8cm
Lodge Blacklock’s cast iron double burner is a reversible grill and griddle for cooking smoky burgers, fried eggs and American-style pancakes. This versatile two-in-one cookware is flat on one side and raised on the other. Use the flat side when you’re cooking pancakes, fried eggs and French toast, and use the reverse to give burgers, steaks and sausages distinct grill lines.
Lodge’s Blacklock range boasts three key differences to other cast iron cookware:
- it’s triple seasoned,
- lightweight,
- and has raised handles.
The triple seasoning means you’ve already got a head start to building up a natural patina when seasoning your pan at home. It’s naturally non-stick and easy to clean. The Blacklock range is cast thinner than other cast iron cookware, making it lighter and easier to lift and handle – great for everyday use. Plus, the handles are extended and raised for added comfort – this also helps the handles stay cooler for longer.
With handles on both sides, this double burner is easy to carry and can be used on any cooking surface – stovetop, open fire and on an induction cooker. The low sides make it easy when flipping food, with a drip tray to catch any spills and grease, and a triple seasoning offers a natural non-stick finish.
This double burner measures 25.5 x 50.8cm.
About Lodge Blacklock Cast Iron
American brand Lodge Cast Iron has been producing cast iron cookware since 1896. Based in Pittsburg, the family-run business uses an automated moulding process to create each piece of cookware. First, iron is heated to 2,000°C in the furnaces. Next comes the casting – a moulding machine creates up to 400 sand moulds per hour, then the liquified metal is poured into the mould. Once the cast iron has cooled, a conveyor shakes off the moulding sand to be recycled, then scrubs the cookware. Finally, each piece is given a deep clean.
The joy of Lodge’s Blacklock cast iron cookware range is that each piece comes pre-seasoned. The final step of the process involves spraying each piece with soybean oil, then baking at a high temperature. This makes each piece ready to use straight away.
